The mage arrives

Gordon put away the Mask of the Faceless Man and the gloves capable of summoning devils, and took out the dimensional bag given to him by Grand Duke Antaello.This is a relic given by the teacher, so naturally there will be no traps.Gordon opened the dimensional bag with confidence, and first took out a letter and a large sheepskin roll.

There were no parting words in the letter, which was in line with Rob Antello's free and easy character.The Grand Duke just explained many details to Gordon and asked him to help arrange various matters after his death.

The death of one of the three grand dukes of the empire is bound to trigger a series of chain reactions.

The so-called cold tea, other aristocrats with a little power, I am afraid that they will surround them like hyenas who saw the corpse, drooling greedily, ready to carve up the wealth and power left by the lord of the scepter at any time - even Freyton The royal family is no exception.However, those peripheral forces that were attached to the lord of the scepter in the past, but were not the core, will surely fly away to find new asylums when disaster strikes.

Only loyal followers of the Grand Duke like Count Julian, the lord of Clear Water, or close friends like Cardinal Ruduo and Archdruid Fritz, will continue to stand by the Antaello family.

Maybe the empire will give the grand duke who sacrificed his life to save the entire war situation in the North an imperial hero status, and then there will be a national mourning, and a legal anniversary, and the legendary mage will be praised in books and poems every month and every month. heroic deeds.But behind these illusory honors, there must be an ugly fight for profit.

Gordon, on the other hand, has to help the Grand Duke accomplish some things.At least let his only daughter, Faliya, not be affected by the group of hyenas scrambling for the corpse.That girl with a simple mind and no understanding of the conspiracy among the nobles to fight for power and profit.If there is no help, I am afraid it will not end well.

"It's really a daunting task. When I think of dealing with nobles who are good at power, I find it troublesome." Gordon sighed and put away the letter that he had carefully read twice.

Although he can be regarded as a man of two lifetimes, Gordon feels that based on his own life experience, if it comes to playing politics, he is definitely not the opponent of those Freyton nobles.But he is a mage.There are many ways to step outside the rules and play games with those politicians, so he is confident.

then.Gordon unfolded the sheepskin scroll again.

It was a map of Freyton, one and a half meters long and one meter wide.Although it is not a military-grade map with extremely high precision, for a mage, this map drawn by Grand Duke Rob Andello himself.But it has inestimable value.

on the map.The Grand Duke marked many unowned magic springs that did not build a mage tower, and noted in detail the scale and energy type of these magic springs.

For a mage like Gordon who would be promoted to the sixth ring in at least a year or so, this map was the most important information.Because after touching the sixth floor of the magic net, if the mage wants to go further and successfully advance to the ranks of high-level mages, then a mage tower of his own is absolutely necessary.

Gordon believes that if this map is circulated on the market.It will definitely be a precious treasure that countless mages will flock to and try their best to get it.Grand Duke Antello wants to draw such a map.I don't know how much time and experience it took.It takes a lot of effort just to travel all over the country with the detector and find out the magic springs.

With such a map as a reference, Gordon can also know what to expect when he obtains his own fiefdom.

Magic springs are divided into five levels: miniature, small, medium, large, and giant.

The source energy flow provided by the miniature magic spring is too small. Basically, no mage will build a mage tower on this level of magic spring. It is generally used to arrange magic circles, or other things that require stable and continuous magic energy. supplied for use.

Small magic springs are the most numerous in the main material world, and they are also the choice of most six-ring mages when they build mage towers.If a mage is lucky enough to find a medium-sized or even a large magic spring, then the road to break through the bottleneck and be promoted to a mage with a seventh ring, eighth ring, or even a ninth ring will be much smoother.

As for the giant magic springs, generally only the headquarters of those larger spellcasting organizations have them.For example, Jiuyao Island, where the headquarters of the Austrian Law Federation is located, has a giant magic fountain.Based on one's own strength alone, even if one finds a giant spring of magic power, he may not be able to hold it, and it will be snatched away by others in minutes, and he may even lose his life.This kind of strategic resource is definitely a hot spot for various countries and organizations to compete for.

The scale of the magic spring means how much arcane energy a mage can use in a unit of time, but the scale alone is not enough.The attributes of the magic spring also need to be considered.

A giant spring of magical power that continuously spews out a large amount of chaotic arcane energy is probably not a precious resource, but a big trouble, or even a disaster.

Gordon browsed the map carefully, and quickly settled on a few magic springs he liked.He believed that with his active performance and achievements in Gaoyan City, he should have a lot of choice when it comes to obtaining fiefdoms.Issues that ordinary lords need to consider, such as population, property, and geographical location, are not important to him.All Gordon needs is a good fountain of magic power.

Gordon already had a good idea of ​​his future territory.He put away the sheepskin map, and then took out the last item from the dimension bag.

This is a crystal ball, similar to the decorations Gordon has seen on Earth. Inside the transparent sphere is a miniature landscape, forming a small world.But the difference is that the world inside the crystal ball in Gordon's hand is alive and dynamic.

At the foot of the three bare mines, there is a group of busy tiny creatures.They were moving in and out of the mine, pulling out piles of ore on trolleys.Then, the workers threw the ore into the blast furnace, smelted it into long strips of metal ingots, and finally stacked them neatly.

According to the usage method explained in the letter by Grand Duke Rob Antello, Gordon read a password, and a light flashed in Leomond's shelter, and a palm-length metal ingot appeared in front of him.

This is a piece of pure gold.

The real thing is pure gold.

This crystal ball contains a small world called "Endless Metal Furnace".When Grand Duke Rob Antello was a legendary mage in his early years, he once discovered a sub-plane while traveling in the plane.There are no plants and water sources, only the world of rolling mountains.And under all the mountains, there are almost endless mineral deposits buried.

Grand Duke Antaello discovered a strange kind of spirit creature associated with various metals in this subplane, and named it "Iron Spirit".So he used magic to cut a small piece of this subplane—that is, three mines and an open space, with an area of ​​about twenty square kilometers.He compressed the cut plane fragments into a crystal ball, then captured hundreds of iron spirits, put them into the crystal ball, and trained them to become hardworking miners and skilled smelters.

This "Endless Metal Furnace" can produce three precious metals, Meteorite, Mithril, and Fine Gold.Although the daily output is not high, it is inexhaustible.With such a treasure, Gordon will be of great use in building his territory and forming his own armed forces in the future.

In addition to the endless metal melting pot, there are no other magic items in the dimensional bag given to Gordon by the bus, only an astonishing number of various precious gems.

Compared with the Grand Duke's status as a legendary mage, among the legacy he left to Gordon, the only magic item is the endless metal furnace.This is not because he is stingy and reluctant to leave some good things for his students.When Gordon checked these gains, he quickly realized the teacher's good intentions.

As a legendary mage, the various magic props on Rob Antello must have been continuously screened and optimized to suit him best. Otherwise, they may not be useful to Gordon.For example, the magic props used to suppress the curse of the demon lord Azulu on his body must be very precious, but they are useless to the higher ones.

An Tailuo thought that sending a powerful magic item might help Gordon a lot in the short term, but in the long run, it would easily make him become dependent, which would be unfavorable for his development.Considering that Gordon himself has a wealth of alchemy knowledge, and has extremely high talents in the fields of strange object making, item enchanting, etc., what he lacks is only resources.

So the Grand Duke simply gave Gordon many precious materials, as well as magic props that can produce rare metals indefinitely.This allows him the freedom to build what works best for him.

Gordon couldn't wait to return to High Rock City, and turned all the experiences and whimsy he had brought into this world from the earth into amazing magic props one after another.

But before that, he had to walk out of the Cold Mist Mountains.

After a night's rest, Gordon woke up in the midday sun.After simply washing up and eating some dry food, he walked out of the shelter.After observing the sun in the sky, Gordon blessed himself with a levitation technique, and then kept rising and rising.

Bless himself with a Pengyu Angel Eye, and Gordon's eyes are already comparable to high-powered binoculars.He observed the surrounding terrain, and finally determined that he was in the depths of the Cold Mist Mountains. The straight-line distance to the west was more than [-] kilometers before he could leave the mountains and return to the Far Frost Province.

After confirming his position and direction, he set off immediately.

Fortunately, with the assistance of various flying spells, the complex terrain in the mountains was no trouble for Gordon. The situation of "looking at the mountains and running dead horses" will not appear.

Almost kept advancing in a straight line. After five days, Gordon finally left the Cold Mist Mountains and came to the small town of Cobre at the foot of the mountains.

As soon as he walked into the town, he unexpectedly saw a huge oil painting of his sister Xiona hanging high on the flagpole. (To be continued..)
